Steve Balsamo

Cast as Jesus in the 1996 West End revival of Jesus Christ Superstar, Steve Balsamo took a Variety Club award for it and a Columbia contract soon after; the album All I Am followed in 2002. The Swansea-born singer has since moved between rock, folk, progressive music and the theatre — a founder member of The Storys, later of ChimpanA and of Balsamo Collins Riley — and lent his voice to Eric Woolfson's Poe. In November 2009 he sang at the Sala Palatului in Bucharest, on one of the symphonic rock evenings associated with Jon Lord.
